Tarot marks identify the 25 cards that carry Tarot major-arcana roles.
The deck words are inspired by the timeless and metaphorical concepts in the Tarot deck. The major arcana themselves are contained in the high ranks of the first five suits and marked with a small τ. To be consistent, some arcana words have been modified (marked with "τ-") and 3 additional thematic 'bridge' cards ("τ*") have been added to round out the count to 25.
Use the marked cards for Tarot-inspired spreads, distinguishing the traditional arcana from the added bridge cards. Marked and unmarked cards can serve major/minor-style roles.
In other games, Tarot membership can identify powers, rare events, story beats, or special objectives.
In addition to marking the words, Tarot cards' icons will carry some aspect of the traditional Tarot symbolism. Additionally, exactly one Tarot card is the emotional anchor for each mode. The last 2 digits of Tarot cards' sequence numbers are the canonical Tarot numbering.
